Chapter 1: What is discussed at the start of this section?
hello everybody welcome to the h3 podcast slash show slash whatever you want to call it let's be real it is january 26 2026 welcome back and welcome back to ila who's been sick yes but you're better now my voice is still kind of not totally there but um but i wanted to get out of the house you got to get out of the house guys you got to
And I miss my Friday show, so... She's back. I'll be here, but I won't say a lot.
There it is. Today, we are sponsored by Monarch Money. Thank you so much. We love Monarch Money. And today, those who have been following, is a big day in the H3 Podcast world. Because today, we are launching... Our very first show without me in it. On this channel. And it is launching directly after this episode. I'll kind of explain it a little bit then. And we have two new hosts.
You're gonna have to tune in to find out who. Fuck it. It's Ethan Bradbury and Team Star.
Yes.
The craziest combo of all time. 2016 is so bad. Zero chemistry. Zero chemistry. But this is an idea that's been rolling around and I think we found the perfect people for it. And I'm so excited. I think it's... Should I just say what it is?
Wait, so what is the concept?
Okay, so I'll spill the beans now. So what we are doing, guys, I know you guys all looking for, everyone wants the show to go longer. You got work, you're doing this and that. It's like when you put on the, my inspiration has always been like, it's like the radio, we're here, we're always here. But our show's only three hours long. So. Only.
Well, actually, to be fair, it's usually three and a half, four hours. Yeah. But that's not long enough. A workday is what? Eight hours? Nine hours? So what's a way to extend it? So we have developed, in collaboration with our friends who you'll meet soon, an after show. An H3 podcast after show that will go live as soon as ours ends. Right here on the H3 Podcast channel.

It's more of what you love and less of what you love. And... And it's more of what you love, not less. People in the chat have been talking about Ethan Klein actually being a financial advisor.
I can't find out on the internet whether he actually is or not.
I am. Every time we do a show, they'll be there after. So we have the members on Thursday. There will not be an after show on Thursday. But Monday, Wednesday, Friday, there will be an after show.

Chapter 3: What are the details surrounding the ICE operations in Minnesota?
Because you know one of the things is that they light up... Like a gas tank?
well you know how like the the batteries can light on fire and it's like a serious thing like when tesla's like go up it's the really intense battery fire yeah so imagine if your car like if something was wrong with the battery it could just eject the battery pack out of the car let me show you what it looks that is very impressive that's sick like a rocket yeah
I love when I hear this glorious CCP in my ear.
All right, you ready?
Yeah, I'm ready. Just show me the video. I'm so ready for the future. The future is China.
Ready for the shit?
Fuck whoever's standing behind you. I'm going to launch a flaming bomb that's about to explode to the car. That thing is on fire and actively exploding.
That's going to do more damage. In the event of a battery failure, the vehicle, it literally ejects the battery packs and not jams.
Wait, hold the phone. I mean, it saves you. It might take out bystanders.

Chapter 4: What are the circumstances surrounding the shooting of Alex Pretti?
In the most not intimidating way at all. That girl's not being hostile. She's not being hostile.
And shots are fired.
Also, like, a lot of the conversation I've seen from conservatives on this is like, fuck around, find out. It's like, dude... Even if she was, like, she was clearly trying to pull away. Even if she, like, clipped him with the cart, that's not a license to kill her.
Also, I don't think it's in this video, but in the original, after he shoots her, he says, fucking bitch. That's, like... Which is so, like, that's why you shot her. Because you're an angry man. Because you're angry. Yeah.
And you're not supposed to, you're not, call me crazy, but I don't think our law enforcement should be shooting people out of anger. Right? That's generally probably not a good thing. Well, if it ends up showing something we don't want, I'll just hit the video button. So that's good. There you go. That's good.
Homeland Security says the ICE agent who fired the shots was hit by the car.
And I have my finger on the button in case you say something. Hey, I'm media trained, baby. We're covered from all angles. Okay. So they claim at first she hit him.
In a statement to NPR News, who fired up, then forward, and shots are fired. The Department of Homeland Security says the ICE agent who fired the shots was hit by the car. Good was killed. Why?

Chapter 5: How do the speakers react to the actions of law enforcement?
In a statement to NPR News, her wife, Becca Good, saying, on Wednesday, January 7th, we stopped to support our neighbors. We had whistles, they had guns. The mayor today responding to those who say his city is dangerous. We've only had two shootings. One of them has been ICE. We are a safe city.
Ice is... Yo, the sign language guy is spitting right now. Oh, I didn't catch it. I love these guys.
This city is dangerous. We've only had two shootings. One of them has been ice. We are a safe city. ICE is making it less so. Minnesota's Bureau of Criminal Apprehension says it has been cut off from the investigation into the shooting, leaving the FBI solely in charge of the case.
Our goal must be to ensure that a thorough investigation is completed at the local level so that our community can have transparency.
Law enforcement officials tell ABC News the agent involved is Jonathan Ross, a 10-year veteran of ICE's special response team. Vice President J.D.
Vance saying on Thursday that the agent has absolute immunity. I can say that the ICE officer does not have complete immunity here.
Wait, didn't he just say he has absolute immunity and then she says he doesn't? That was confusing. I've heard he does have absolute immunity, which is what police officers generally have. Yeah, it sure seems that way a lot of the time. I think you're referring to what J.D. Vance said about them having absolute immunity.
I think he later tried to backtrack on that when people pointed out how fucking insane. Well, of course they don't. They have some immunity. Oh, maybe it's just civil lawsuits.

Chapter 6: What insights are shared about the impact of ICE operations on communities?
Oh, you're talking. Yes. Yeah, correct. Yeah, correct.
day of calm and unity and in that statement today renee good's wife said she is pure love pure joy and pure sunshine armando garcia abc news minneapolis i don't understand their policy of just like kill to shoot like if even if you feel like you're under a threat why don't why not shoot a tire or you know you've probably seen by now on wednesday well so
The police are trained to shoot to kill. Why? But they're way more trained to defend the police. They're much more trained. These ICE guys are just given a gun and said, go out there. You know what I mean? So they're taught to shoot to kill basically just to preserve their own life. But shooting obviously should be a last resort.
The principle behind it is that you should only be shooting if it is a direct life-threatening experience, and if that is the case, then you want to shoot to end the threat completely.
Okay, so if the threat is that she's driving towards you, if you shot the tire, wouldn't that disarm the situation?
I mean, I'm of the opinion that it's all irrelevant, because I don't think
No one needed to shoot.
He clearly was not under threat.
I agree.

Chapter 7: What events led to the tragic killing of Alex Pretti?
I'm just trying to think if the misfiring... Just listen to the audio, okay?
Yeah. You can see when he pulls his gun and then you can see here the first shot. This guy, this guy there, he's reaching in and he... Here's the beating. Yeah. Okay, that guy's running off with the gun now. So you're about to hear the first... Can you see the guy drawing this?
Can you see him draw? I want to see the other angle. Wait, hold on.
That's the second one, I think, that has it. Or... Yeah, hold on.
One of them has a good... I think the one that stabilized. This one.
But this one has audio, but it's bad, so bear with me. It's slowed down. Okay, there's not been a shot fired.
That's what I'm saying. He grabbed his gun already before, even if it was a misfire, he's already grabbing his gun before that happened. So it wasn't a misfire that caused him to action.
Yeah, he had his gun out. Totally get what you're saying now, and you're absolutely right.
It was the same exact thing as they did with Rene Good.

Chapter 8: How do the speakers analyze the actions of law enforcement?
He's pointing it at him that whole time. So there's like a good beat of him aiming at him. The shot goes off. He shot him. That was him. I feel like 99% sure that there was no misfire.
Yeah, from this angle, I feel like it was not a misfire.
I feel like it makes total sense looking at this angle. Yeah. I don't know. Wait, what?
I'm also pretty sure the guy next to him... who he has his arm on and is touching, is the one that takes the gun, like Alex's gun. And he's also just... It's right there in front of him. If you have the confidence to take your gun out and shoot him, you have the ability... He saw what's going on in front of him. It's so malicious. It's so somebody that just wanted to shoot someone.
Be careful with this narrative because I see people who are... Hold on. Like this video of this sniper or whatever, I think I sent it. And obviously he's against the police big time. But we need to be careful about this narrative because they're going to use this. And based on what I just saw, again, I don't know for sure. You're talking about the narrative of it accidentally going off?
I feel like we've got to squash that.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, this detail goes against that, but it's important to realize, because it is part of that narrative, is the particular gun that Alex owned, that they pulled away, is... just happens to be a model, that is known to be prone to misfiring. In fact, there was a large scandal about that just in the last year or so where the gun has been banned in a lot of places because of misfiring. So...
And that's not to say that's what happened, but that's part of why that narrative is starting to build is that that particular gun happens to be known for that issue. Do you have that video I was talking about of the sniper explaining? Yeah, I think we deleted it though, but I might still have it.
